“In three years I want to be the youngest Tira. I want to own my own record label and entertainment company. I want my name to be respected in that way. I am working hard for that goal and studying the music business as much as possible.”

4. Amablesser was inspired by a true love story of his own.
“I never thought that it would be this catchy. I was just writing a song about a breakup and the pain of losing love. I wrote the song like three years ago when a girl left me for a blesser and so when Maphorisa asked me if I wrote my own songs, I pulled out the lyrics.” Reflecting on the inspiration for the song Mlindo said he was heartbroken when his significant other decided to leave him for a blesser.
